My TROFAST studio

Materials: Trofast boxes, jig saw, sand paper, screws

Description: Ikea’s toys storage boxes were used both to cover the ceiling, and to create the libraries. With a jig saw I cut the bottom of the boxes which were then fixed to the wall, alternating with closed boxes with LEDs inside. I fixed to the ceiling the smaller boxes over adhesive strips of LEDs for a very effective ceiling light!

The desk is obtained from two old Ikea tables. On the wood I fixed the boxes, while the legs become a shelf for the glass top beneath which are placed TROFAST boxes used as drawers.

I’m amazed that these hold so much weight, what a cool storage solution! Looks like something from 70′s sci-fi! I’m not sure how you resisted fitting the ceiling “pods” with dioder colour changing LEDs, that would take the funk factor into overdrive.
